Economists and real estate experts who were quoted in the report are concerned about the impact of rising construction costs and supply chain disruptions, further exacerbating the affordability crisis.
Additionally, the report explores potential policy interventions and market indicators that could influence the market in the coming months. Overall, the report paints a cautious picture, indicating that the path to affordable housing in 2023 remains uncertain, with various economic and market factors at play.
